I did not have the time to go in detail on the last slide. this figure must be understood as a work in progress, partly based on Malcolm Ross' model for aesthetic learning processes. In the introduction to Mindstorms - Children, Computers, and Powerful Ideas (Papert, 1980), Seymour Papert reflects on how computers can make it easier for children to create themselves. This view of creative work is rooted in what Papert calls constructionism. This is an approach to learning where design experiences result in “objects to think with”, ie material objects that can also be internalized through mental structures (Keune and Peppler, 2018). Such experiences where the learner influences and is influenced by the environment are connected with the concept of tinkering, working methods that are close to what one knows from analogue materials and crafts. The idea of ​​tinkering (Resnick and Rosenbaum, 2013) has followed people as long as we have had a relationship with tools, and is related to Claude Levi-Strauss' concept bricolage. Tinkering, understood as a playful approach with the possibilities provided by available tools, has always been a winning strategy for innovation.
